Vista seems to be always losing my monitor specific settings, and reverting to generic. Is there something I can do to correct that?

How to disable DfrgNtfs.exe?
I recently noticed that whenever my laptop is an idle mode for a prolonged time, DfrgNtfs.exe comes in. I understand that this Vista’s native Disk Defragmenter. Since I am using Raxco’s Disk Defragmentation Utility, which seems to do a far better (and faster) job then the native Defragmenter, I would like to turn DfrgNtfs.exe off so that it no longer runs when the system is idle. ...
